With the bottle of bleach will that still be at a safe level to swim?

Thanks guys, sorry in the delay for the reply, I have basically had my pump running 24/7 and brushing daily and cleaning the filter daily, I have had the SWG on 100% output also, My kit STILL hasn't arrived its due in on Tuesday so hopefully I can get it all sorted then. I have used Aquachek 7...

idea of what I am talking about

Thanks crazy, sadly Elite are on New providence (nassau) about 150 miles away on a separate island. I am waiting on my test kit for the SLAM but shipping delays will mean I have to wait a while (already started new thread to address this problem...

Hi all, We live in the Bahamas and have had our pool for just over a year now and every time I look at it I wince with disappointment, I can't get in and enjoy a swim without picking flaws in everything I see. Let's just say the level of professional skill and ability is below average here and...

Hi all, I have had issues with algae for the past few weeks now and have done my reading on the SLAM method of eradicating which I intend to implement as soon as my test kit arrives, however, I live in the Bahamas and that kit won't be here for 2-3 weeks as I ordered it along with some other...

We are building in the Bahamas and the property is still under construction as far as landscaping etc. When the pool was constructed and filled the surrounding areas were still not grassed. The top soil that has been laid down has been blowing into the pool and as I don't yet have an auto pool...

Now would it be a waste of time putting another filter (100-120sqft) in front of my existing one to give me a 200sqft+ or do i have to get a single 200sqft? On further inspection it looks like it my be calcium build up i have jet washed it up close and lots of flaky stuff comes out, still trying...

Thanks for your responses guys, After getting the o-ring out of the strainer basket and reseating it and it making no difference I was just slightly leaning on the outlet from the filter and it didn't feel very much pressure at all and the gauge was at 30psi so just for experimental sake i...
